Comments about Franzus Franzus 3 Step Heavy Duty Photographer's LadderKart Combination with 250 lb. Weight Capacity as a Hand Truck.:
I purchased this for use at a solo shoot wedding. I thought a dual purpose cart would be great. I found it to be difficult to maneuver, store & unfold . If you are a big strong male or female then it will be ok. I am a petite female
( consider myself pretty strong) but, will most likely not use it myself, in the future. It did however provide me with a high view point for good shots. Is Well made, but just too large & heavy for a pip squeak like me. If I have an assistant with me it may work better.
Comments about Franzus Franzus 3 Step Heavy Duty Photographer's LadderKart Combination with 250 lb. Weight Capacity as a Hand Truck.:
This Ladderkart is so convenient, that fellow workers always want to know WHERE I got it, (so they can get their own). Not only is it lightweight, it is just narrow enough to get into tight spots. The wheels make it easy to move on the job, from one location to the next, without any lifting. PLUS, the added convenience of using the hand truck to carry tool bags etc., saves an extra trip to the vehicle.
I do wish there were a small tray at top, to hold implements.
All in all I LOVE it! I have also purchased the ladderkart as a gift for family & friends.

Comments about Franzus Franzus 3 Step Heavy Duty Photographer's LadderKart Combination with 250 lb. Weight Capacity as a Hand Truck.:
Wish I bought this sooner. It easily carries my gear. I also allows me to get a higher vantage point fro taking shots over other people. I used it at a shoot of a family reunion so that I was looking down a bit on the whole family. I was easily able to get a shot with all of their faces visible. For the hevy capicity it can handle it is actually quite light and wheels around easily. This is a well designed piece of equipment. The steps are wide,sturdy, and stable enough for my 240lb body. The only thing keeping me from giving it 5-stars is that I would have prefered a solid load plaftorm instead of the tubular platform.

Comments about Franzus Franzus 3 Step Heavy Duty Photographer's LadderKart Combination with 250 lb. Weight Capacity as a Hand Truck.:
I bought this to use to take pictures at a wedding and to take pictures from above. I was not expecting it to be as tall as it was and I was glad for that. The only thing I did not care for was that, when I put stuff on the rack to haul stuff and I went to just stand it straight up not folded out, it would not just stand there on its own. The ladder wanted to fold itself up and that was one of the main purposes that I bought the ladder for. I ended up not using it too much at the wedding. But I still think that it is a cool ladder.

Comments about Franzus Franzus 3 Step Heavy Duty Photographer's LadderKart Combination with 250 lb. Weight Capacity as a Hand Truck.:
We had four Ladder Karts and recently purchased two more. Professional Photography students use them to carry photo equipment to and from school and to photo shoots. Of course, students also stand on ladder when photographing. What else could you want? Oh, quality construction and wheels that roll over both urban and country landscapes and keep on working. Bonus.

Comments about Franzus Franzus 3 Step Heavy Duty Photographer's LadderKart Combination with 250 lb. Weight Capacity as a Hand Truck.:
I was actually thinking of making one of these myself when a diligent web searching found this one. I really like the ladder cart for times when I am photographing larger groups and events. Yeah, I have a rolling bag, but also a tripod/light stand bag ... when you need to get up higher, then this thing cannot be beat for convenience and price.
My complaint is that I find it difficult to secure my bag to the cart; and, I wish the wheels were bigger (for lawns, etc).

Comments about Franzus Franzus 3 Step Heavy Duty Photographer's LadderKart Combination with 250 lb. Weight Capacity as a Hand Truck.:
This is a good versatile ladder kart for on-location and studio use. It's built like a tank - therefore I expect it to last. I bought this really for studio shooting situations, less for hauling gear. But looks like it will do a good job as a kart as well. The fixed wheels stick out a bit, but seems they help to balance the ladder-kart when stored in upright position.

Comments about Franzus Franzus 3 Step Heavy Duty Photographer's LadderKart Combination with 250 lb. Weight Capacity as a Hand Truck.:
If you have to bring a ladder to a shoot, it's great that it does two jobs. It makes a great hand truck to bring in lighting, Pelican cases and all that stuff that takes multiple trips. And when you're done carting things around, you can safely climb up to get above the crowd ... or just get a new perspective. The hand rail also minimizes vertigo if you brace your legs against it when you're on the top step. I've retired my old cart.

Comments about Franzus Franzus 3 Step Heavy Duty Photographer's LadderKart Combination with 250 lb. Weight Capacity as a Hand Truck.:
This product is simply OUTSTANDING. My only complaint is what do I do with the other 3 dolly's I have that I thought would work but didn't!! A photographer/videographer's dream come true. I wish I had found it 10 years ago. I would highly recommend to ANYONE.

Comments about Franzus Franzus 3 Step Heavy Duty Photographer's LadderKart Combination with 250 lb. Weight Capacity as a Hand Truck.:
Great ladder. Most of my shooting is on location and I used a four wheel cart previously but this cart is awesome. Great for carrying your gear on any type of floor and even up the stairs(try that with a cart). Sturdy and solid when I stand on it to do overhead shots I feel safe. The only thing I would add to this cart would be some pre-drilled holes so you can use bungee cords to secure the gear. [$]

Comments about Franzus Franzus 3 Step Heavy Duty Photographer's LadderKart Combination with 250 lb. Weight Capacity as a Hand Truck.:
In general, a great dual-purpose product; far better than lugging a ladder and your gear into a wedding! This has allowed us to get those top-down shots in venues where there was no balcony/stairs handy without doing the balancing act on chairs; much safer!
Takes some getting used to if you've used carts with an axle for tilt-back leverage, and the handle padding could be a sturdier material, but for the price it's impossible to beat.

Comments about Franzus Franzus 3 Step Heavy Duty Photographer's LadderKart Combination with 250 lb. Weight Capacity as a Hand Truck.:
I primarily do wedding and portrait photography and have been using the department store/home supply stepstools. I never felt comfortable on them. I never fell or anything. They were just always shaky. This is finally a sturdy, as well as an affordable, unit that I feel secure on. And, it doubles as an excellent handtruck for carting around my equipment
Comments about Franzus Franzus 3 Step Heavy Duty Photographer's LadderKart Combination with 250 lb. Weight Capacity as a Hand Truck.:
love this item, comes all ready assembled, you just put the wheel on which was very easy! I just wish it had come with straps to hold my items better, but other than that it is a great item.

Comments about Franzus Franzus 3 Step Heavy Duty Photographer's LadderKart Combination with 250 lb. Weight Capacity as a Hand Truck.:
This portable ladder is great. I stopped taking a ladder to wedding receptions because the one I had was shaky and hard to transport. This is strong, I don't worry about falling off of it during a reception. Plus. it's on wheels and doubles as a hand truck.
Great price

Comments about Franzus Franzus 3 Step Heavy Duty Photographer's LadderKart Combination with 250 lb. Weight Capacity as a Hand Truck.:
This is a solid piece of equipment with a very stable ladder and quite adequate use as a handtruck.The only problem I have is when it's folded as a handtruck it will not stand upright by itself. You have to engage the ladder for it to stand upright.
